INTERNATIONAL TOUR

As You all know I live on a wonderful little farm & create glorious art. I love foraging, finding weird & peculiar pretties to create exotic pieces. This is my happy place…so it brings me joy to announce I’m going to be sharing my joy of ‘the farm and foraging’ with you in our workshops!

But how Julia, I hear you ask? Easy peasy you may think, well not really all that easy, all the time. A lot of planning & passion has delivered the perfect mix of workshops for you to join me in a creative quest of your own, with me!

I’m excited to offer the fabulous experience of holding all of our workshops on FARMS & in ART spaces! Flower farms, green farms & just good old fashioned farms where we can fall in love with our surroundings, unleash our creative spirits & let loose! You never know we might see a baby animal or two?! Eeep!

All skill levels welcome, florists, flower lovers, creatives & gardeners alike!

On every farm at every location:

Art spaces, filled with interesting character, some shiny & bright, others a little old & creaky, both full of creative spirit!

DAY 1

We will take a quick adventure around the farm, beginning our creative floral session by designing a stunning bouquet. We’ll enjoy lunch. Then dive into our afternoon session designing beautiful offset flower crown, whilst enjoying creative discussions overlooking this gorgeous setting.

DAY 2

Will be tailored to suit the venue & location. Ranging from wearable floral couture & suspended installs, large art forms from fresh florals & botanicals…..divine inspiration will take us on a journey.

Oh this is going to be so much fun!! These glorious destinations to be announced in due course…

Tasmania, Rockhampton, South Australia, Melbourne, Mornington Peninsula, Canberra, New Zealand and USA.

We can’t wait for you to join us on this glorious floral, botanical journey of creation & learning together.

Midday – Lunch break

Time to refresh with a lunch break.

Large water containers topped with local citrus will be available throughout the workshop to rehydrate.

12.30 – Large set design and floral couture

The afternoon session is super exciting as we will do a group build, as a team we will design a suspended installation specially conceptualised to work with our chosen space.

We will step inside the space and discuss the ‘Vision’. We will build from the substructure up!

Touching on things like the role of light and color and defining a clear goal of the end piece.

Set design is what we are after, we want to create a ‘Mood’ and we want that mood to relay to our viewer in the end image!

…And if that’s not enough we will also be designing a piece of Floral couture, something fabulous just to finish the look.

The group build will be followed by a photoshoot to capture all our magic!

We Breathe and we shoot! During this time sweet little bowls of fruit freshly picked to keep our energy up whilst we watch the creation be captured.

4-5pm

Session ends and we all bask in the magic, knowing not only have we created something of beauty that will inspire many, we have just created memories that will last a lifetime.

Every attendee receives a HERO image of the group build.

All attendees (if they choose) will be tagged on social media when the Hero image is released.

Julia Rose also captures a collection of images throughout the sessions, which she will send through to all attendees.
